• Origin of the word
• History and modernity

Cruise is a concept that, as a rule, is associated with rest, sea, sun, pleasant pastime. But this is a general idea, but not everyone knows what are the features of this type of travel. It is this question that we will consider today, and we will also figure out that this is a cruise.

What does the dictionary say?

The meaning of the word «cruise» in the explanatory dictionary says the following:

• The first option says that this is a tourist trip.
• In the second, it is specified that a cruise is a trip by sea in accordance with a given route.

It should be noted that the first option is a generalized understanding of the term, since not only a cruise, but also other types of travel are suitable for the definition of a tourist trip.

Expansion of the concept

But the second option also lends itself to clarification, since «sea voyage» is the initial interpretation of the word «cruise». Today, we are seeing its significant expansion, because travel agencies offer several alternatives. These are river cruises and trains.

Thus, we can come to the conclusion that the modern interpretation of the word being studied is a long-term organized journey along a given route, carried out using various types of transport — sea, river, rail, road, ferry. It often includes travel from ports inland.

Words that are close in meaning

For a complete acquaintance with the meaning of «cruise» we will give synonyms for this word. These include such as:

• voyage;
• tour;
• swimming;
• Trip;
• tour;
• travel;
• tour trip;
• hike;
• road;
• wandering.

Next, let us trace the etymology of the studied linguistic object.

No matter how paradoxical it sounds, but according to scientists-etymologists, the term we are studying is directly related to the word «cross». I wonder how? Indeed, rather, a cruise evokes associations with a closed line.

The fact is that the researchers offer a version that the roots of the word «cruise» go back to the history of navigation. And even deeper — into the Latin language. As you know, one of the most «sea nations» is the Dutch, who made a great contribution to the development of shipbuilding.

By the 15th century, the equipment of ships and knowledge of navigation were at a level that made it possible to make sea crossings over long distances. It was at the end of the 15th — beginning of the 16th century that the Great Geographical Discoveries were made. And in this case, the Dutch were the third, following the Spanish sailors.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the Dutch verb kruisen began to be used to designate a large number of long-distance voyages, meaning «to cross,» that is, figuratively speaking, to plow the seas and oceans far and wide.

But this verb itself comes from the Latin noun crux, the meaning of which is «cross». According to the researchers, the German word Kreuzfahrt, which denotes a cruise, is a confirmation of this version. It consists of the two words Kreuz (cross) and fahrt (ride, ride).

From the Dutch language, the verb kruisen passed into English under the guise of cruise, meaning «to make flights, travel.» Then an English noun was formed from it, which is spelled in the same way as the verb cruise. And it means «sea voyage». And finally, in the 60s of the last century, the Russian noun «cruise» was formed from the latter.

At the end of the study of the question of what it is — a cruise, we give some details of this type of travel.

History and modernity

The origin of sea tourism took place around the middle of the 19th century. Then liner companies tried to solve the problem of downtime of passenger ships in the off-season. In this regard, they began to provide them for the transport of emigrants to the American continent in the period from 1846 to 1940. With the intensification of competition, shipowners constantly improved living conditions, interior decoration, and the entire service system. Gradually the ships turned into luxury hotels.

Today, cruises on large liners resembling entire cities are very popular. They have cinemas, libraries, restaurants, banquet and gyms, and even parks with real trees.Modern liners typically have 12 passenger decks.

From April to October, the most popular cruises are Mediterranean travel. In autumn, liners often go on transatlantic flights, the duration of which starts from ten days. They continue sailing along the Caribbean islands and the coast of Brazil. In winter, Asian cruises are very popular. With the onset of spring, most of the ships return to Europe.

At the same time, cruises made on small ships — sailing yachts, catamarans, which can accommodate from 4 to 12 people, are gaining great popularity today. They contain the conveniences necessary for life. For example, sleeping places, stove, toilet, shower, refrigerator. Such trips last from one week or more, and the crew, as a rule, is one or two people.
